A cleaner home is a hugely popular New Year’s resolution, but common cleaning problems can make tidying up feel impossible. Many households often spend hours cleaning only to find their home is still dirty. Most of the time, this is caused by a few common mistakes and can be fixed using the right products and techniques. Here are four common cleaning problems and how to solve them.
Sticky and Dull Floors
Do you ever clean your floors regularly and still struggle to remove wax or restore shine? Waxy floors often result from needing to use more all-purpose cleaners. If extra scrubbing doesn’t work, try a wax remover. But don’t forget to rinse your floors after, or the residue from the all-purpose cleaner will leave your floors looking dull!
Streaky Windows
Streaks and smudges on windows usually come from too much or not enough glass cleaner, so try experimenting with the right amount of cleanser and wiping it off with a clean paper towel.
Dirty Microwaves
All the buildup in microwaves can seem impossible to scrub off, but one quick tip to dissolve the grime is to mix ½ cup water with ½ cup white vinegar and microwave until the mixture starts to boil. Leave the bowl in for a few minutes to allow the steam to roll down the inside walls, then wipe down with a cloth and watch the dirt come off instantly! Add some essential oil or freshly squeezed lemon to the mixture to make your kitchen smell nice.
Clogged Drains
Clear out your drains without fancy cleaning supplies using one cup of baking soda, one cup of water, and one cup of vinegar. Pour a couple of cups of boiling water down the drain, pour in the mixture, and run more boiling water down the drain a few minutes later, and your pipes will be clean in a matter of minutes without getting messy!
